1949 "Nordest" cable hoe

[Papy]

Here are some pics of a small cable hoe I bought last winter. The nice T800 belongs to a friend of mine. Not very common here in europe, specially with such a load on the trailer





New home...



Not so good looking from outside, but in an amazing working condition : after 20 years or so of beeing parked, we were able to start it in a few minutes for loading and restart it the next day after a night outside, by freezing weather for unloading !!!!!



Gears, clutches, old grease.......



And finally, the operator's station. Comfort and.....fresh air
